The possibilities are endless as childhood playground spaces to use year round, a valuable play space that children adore, and helps to preserve parental sanity in an affordable way.Ever since men stopped making cradles for their new baby arrivals, the basement playground is the next best thing for Mother’s to admire, providing endless hours of exciting safe play for children, in a space that no one has ever quite known what to do with, except for storage, and men’s workshops.

Could you please tell me what did you use to cover the basement wall frame. I see that it is shiny and has a reflective front. Thanks!Hello there, thanks for the wonderful ideas.

Always be certain that any <a href="http://www.hanneganremodeling.com/basement-remodeling.html" rel="nofollow">basement remodeling</a> contractor has the proper permits. I have seen this many times in my over 15 years in the remodeling industry create huge problems. Anyhow, just my two cents!These are some really good tip’s, however there is something that was not mentioned that I have found to be a weak point with some contractors.

cleared them and remodeled some corners, painted, illuminated with the help of Advantagehandy two months back;
now it is quite comfortable. My son and his friends like to work for their
school project here, place has become quite spacious. Your blog is impressive,
thanks for the ideas.Our basement was packed with unwanted things. We
